What is recorded here

This monument was subject to geophysical survey (Licence no. 08R029) and test excavation (Licence no. 10E0121) in advance of the Portrane, Donabate and Lusk Waste Water Treatment scheme. A settlement site extending over an area c. 65m E-W x 90m was identified and preserved in situ. It consists of a possible Bronze Age round house (DU012-095002-), pits, and enclosure ditch. Features to the N are likely to date to the Iron Age or later (McQuade 2011, 37). Compiled by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 5 February 2015
